“Ave, Maria Gratia Plena: 75 years of Unending Grace” is always an assurance to us

of God’s never ceasing providence through Our Lady. In this year as we celebrate
the very palpable presence of Our Lady of the Rosary as she declared in her
apparition in Fatima, Portugal a century ago that she is indeed Our Mother. In this
year that the Church canonized the visionaries of Fatima: St. Francisco and St.
Jacinta, little and insignificant children but were entrusted the real assurance of God’s
grace through Our Lady of the Rosary that through our reparations and prayers we
can bring about true peace and conversion in the world. May the respect for life and
the challenge to be the voices of our little ones of our times is our constant meditation
of the needed grace through the praying of the rosary to flow from Jesus Christ
through Our Lady of the Rosary to us, to these neglected ones.

Congratulations and best wishes to the Santisimo Rosario Parish for painstakingly
accompanying the journey of our parishioners both our residents and students to
lead them closer to the source of Grace through the Lady of the Holy Rosary.

A joyful and meaningful celebration of your 75th Jubilee.
